About the artist
The works of Jessie Lim consist of both the sculptural and the functional. Her career began with the creation of functional and practical items – bowls, platters, jars. Over time, Lim started approaching her work from a sculptural perspective. The movement to sculpture was akin to charting new and exciting territory. Forms unimaginable to the artist emerged from the clay as though they were always there waiting for her to materialise them. A series of "Spires" and "Orbs" were among her first creations. Today, these sculptures are what some term as "sheer fantasy", expression in a pure form. It is the artist's hope that her artworks, many inspired by nature, will help visitors shift their perspective, if only temporarily.
